Conditions

Eligible applicants are doctoral students enrolled at PhF (including those on leave during the publication phase). In 2024, a subsidy of up to 2000 CHF per person can be requested. Multiple applications can be submitted until the maximum sum is reached. There is no entitlement to full reimbursement of requested costs. Amounts below 100 CHF will not be paid out. Budgetary constraints apply.
